Chapter 27: Solving the Source

Genres:Martial Arts and Xianxia Last update:25/03/23 21:01:37
    Although there was a psychological expectation, Ding Huan was still disappointed. Fortunately, she knew that Qu Yi had people protecting her nearby.

    Ding Huan did not have high hopes for the man and woman who protected Qu Yi. If this man and woman could really protect Qu Yi, then in the previous life, Qu Yi would not have been captured by the Human Genetic Alliance for human genetic experiments and perished.

    Since it's impossible to gain Qu Yi's trust, the only option is to trace the source.

    Ding Huan now knows who the person staring at Qu Yi is. It is the two men who are living in a high-end hotel called "You Dun".

    Over the next few days, Ding Huan bought some materials for disguise. He did not want the situation to get out of control.

    The best way is to eliminate the controllable factors that pose a danger to Qu Yi.

    Even though he knew that Qu Yi was taken by the Human Genetic Alliance for experimentation five months later, Ding Huan did not want to take this risk.

    If it wasn't for him having investigated the You Dun luxury hotel, Ding Huan would have wanted to get rid of these two guys a few days ago.

    Ding Huan had waited for over a week before disguising himself to enter the You Dun luxury hotel.

    He chose not to go at night, as the daytime with many people around was the safest. At night, with fewer people and his disguise, he would be more noticeable.

    Entering You Dun luxury hotel, Ding Huan took the elevator directly to the 11th floor, walked to the outside of room 1123, and knocked on the door.

    "Who is it?" A lazy question came from inside.

    "Room service with ice drinks." Ding Huan's voice carried a slight warmth.

    "What kind of ice drinks? I didn't order any..." The door was opened as the person spoke.

    Ding Huan walked in and closed the door with his back foot.

    "Who are you?" The person who opened the door immediately retreated several steps, obviously realizing that Ding Huan was not a staff member of the hotel and his appearance was quite peculiar.

    Bearded, wearing a baseball cap, and sunglasses almost covering half of his face.

    "Get out..." Another person grabbed a knife and called for Ding Huan to leave, with the knife in his hand already swung towards Ding Huan.

    He did not intend to let Ding Huan really leave.

    Ding Huan did not even try to dodge; instead, he took a step forward, reached out with a swift movement, and grabbed the man's wrist before bending it back forcefully.

    A crisp sound of snapping followed, and the man's wrist was easily broken.

    "Aaah..." A painful shriek echoed, his knife fell to the ground, and the person who had attacked Ding Huan bent his knees halfway, as if bowing to Ding Huan.

    Ding Huan kicked the knife with his toe, and it landed in his hand. Then he looked at the other man who was still in a daze and said,

    "If you dare to make any more noise, I guarantee that you will be completely quiet."

    "Who the hell are you? Do you know where we come from? We are...?"

    The man whose wrist was broken was in such pain that his face had turned pale, yet he was still roaring in agony.

    Before the man could even say the words "Human Genetic Alliance," Ding Huan's knife swung down, and a stream of blood shot out. Ding Huan chopped off the man's head with a single stroke.

    The man who had opened the door for Ding Huan was so frightened that he fell to the ground, his face as pale as a ghost.

    He had never seen such a bloodthirsty scene. Now indeed was the time when gene beasts roamed, but he, like others like him, had never been on the battlefield.

    The harsh living environment of humans is only reflected on ordinary people, and it has nothing to do with them.

    Ding Huan patted the man's face with the knife and said, "See, I said I would make him quiet."

    "I know nothing..." The man finally came to his senses from his terror, trembling as he said.

    "If you answer my questions, I'll make you quiet. If you lie or don't answer, you'll still be quiet." Ding Huan walked to the chair and sat down.

    Even though Ding Huan had sat down, the man inside the room was still terrified after witnessing Ding Huan kill a person in a bloody manner.

    "What is your name?"

    "Cháng Chóng Jīn."

    "Which organization are you from? What are you doing here?"

    "We are from the Human Genetic Alliance, our task is to guard the Chinese Martial Arts Gene Testing Building every day and look for all kinds of special gene types."

    "How many have you found?"

    "All here." The man did not dare to hesitate or conceal anything, reaching out to pick up the notebook on the table and handing it to Ding Huan.

    Ding Huan flipped through the notebook, which listed at least twenty names, and Qu Yi's name was among them.

    What surprised Ding Huan was that Qu Yi was not an heterozygous compatible body, but a coupled gene body.

    He was truly wrong, and it turned out that the person he thought was the heterozygous compatible body he mentioned earlier was actually someone else.

    That's strange. If Qu Yi is a coupled gene body, why would she be taken for genetic testing and experimentation?

    "Has this data been submitted?" Ding Huan waved the notebook in his hand.

    The man quickly shook his head, "No, this data is all handwritten. We will turn it in to our leader, Quan, after the assessment begins."

    "Who is Leader Quan?"

    "He is the leader of the Human Genetic Alliance who was sent to find talent in the Blue Star Ten College Competition."

    Ding Huan snorted coldly, "Searching for talent? It's probably to do genetic experiments or to send them to their deaths."

    The man's mouth was half open, and he looked at Ding Huan in disbelief. How could they not know about such things, and how did Ding Huan know?

    Both he and his companion could only vaguely guess that these people they had noted down would not be seen again in the future.

    The Human Genetic Alliance is so powerful because it is constantly replenished with new genes by people who go to their deaths for new genes.

    Every time a new gene comes out, the Human Genetic Alliance gains another printing press for money.

    They could only guess. They dare not even say it. Such a thing, who dares to speak out, that's equivalent to not wanting to see the sun the next day.

    "Speak, what is Leader Quan's name? Do you have a photo, where does he live?" Ding Huan knew that he wasn't going to get much more out of them.

    The man shook his head, "I don't know either, I only know that his codename is 'Quan Lao Da'. Those who have the qualifications to see him are called 'Quan Ye'."

    "We will take this data to listen at the Huan Grand Hotel after the gene assessment begins. At that time, someone will come to find us automatically."

    ...

    An hour later, Ding Huan left the You Dun luxury hotel and returned to his own place.

    The next day, while Ding Huan was having dinner, he heard news about two members of the Human Genetic Alliance being killed.

    You Dun luxury hotel had been sealed off, and the streets were filled with officials conducting checks. The Human Genetic Alliance's security personnel were acting as if they were crazy, searching every hotel.

    Ding Huan sighed in admiration, this was the killing of two members of the Human Genetic Alliance. If ordinary people were killed, let alone two, even if it was two hundred, probably no news would be reported the next day.

    Such a large-scale search, it is simply not existent.

    Not to mention ordinary people, even when he killed two members of the Xidao Society in Luohe City, the result was just a mere incident.

    Even if that matter had not been resolved, the Xidao Society would not have dared to come after him openly, they would have had to resort to secret methods.

    It can be seen how influential the Human Genetic Alliance is.

    Ding Huan acted as if nothing had happened, continuing with his training and eating as usual in the following days.

    The Human Genetic Alliance did not find any results, and they could even not know what the person who killed two of their members looked like.

    Because the person had disguised himself, and he had not come out of Room 1123 after entering, it was likely that the person had left through the window of the room.

    A person who could leave through a window on the 11th floor of a building cannot be an ordinary one.

    Puhai is where the Blue Star Ten College Competition is held. As the competition date approaches, more and more people are coming to Puhai.

    No matter how powerful the Human Genetic Alliance is, it is still just an international organization.

    The Human Genetic Alliance's overt search for the person who killed its members has long caused dissatisfaction among various parties.

    Moreover, Puhai is an important city in China. In the face of such a major competition, the Human Genetic Alliance cannot suppress the situation and cause dissatisfaction and anxiety to spread.

    By this point, the Human Genetic Alliance could only lay low and no longer be able to openly continue the investigation.

    Ding Huan did not intend to let it go at that. He planned to go to the Huan Grand Hotel when the Blue Star Ten College Competition recruitment began, in order to find Leader Quan.

    It would be best if he could take out this guy, as in the previous life, Qu Yi should have been taken by this person and then killed.

    He should still be low-profile for now, letting Leader Quan be arrogant for a few days.

    "It's you? Ding Huan?"

    On this day, Ding Huan bought the information for the Blue Star Ten College Competition after eating breakfast and was called out by someone at the hotel entrance.

    The Blue Star Ten College Competition was approaching, and there were new messages about it every day. Regardless of which hotel you stayed in, you could purchase the information at the entrance.

    Ding Huan suspiciously turned his head to look, and then he saw Luo Xinwei standing not far away.

    "Luo Xinwei?" Ding Huan saw it was Luo Xinwei, and he was slightly puzzled but did not mind it.

    In his eyes, Luo Xinwei was no different from any other passersby.

    "Ding Huan, it's really you. How did you get here?" Luo Xinwei immediately walked over.

    In any case, she had benefited greatly from Ding Huan. Without Ding Huan, there would be no Luo Xinwei today. More importantly, she could still be a supervisor at Luowu University of Wushuang.

    "Oh, I'm a supervisor, I hung out with Teacher Geng. Teacher Geng has a few students who are going to take the Blue Star Ten College Competition, so I came to Puhai in advance to see the situation."

    Ding Huan answered casually.

    Luo Xinwei looked at Ding Huan in surprise, she didn't expect Ding Huan to get such a job.

    This is not an ordinary job. Anything connected to the Blue Star Ten College Competition is not simple.

    Although she was so sycophantic, she was just doing some menial tasks for the team from Luohe University of Wushuang participating in the Blue Star Ten College Competition. At least, she had come to Puhai.

    "Xinwei, let's go!" A distant voice called out.

    Luo Xinwei quickly said to Ding Huan, "Ding Huan, work hard. You'll definitely succeed."

    She said that and quickly went to chase after her companions.

    Ding Huan was puzzled. Success about what? He had no idea.

    Mm, not right, Ding Huan felt as if he was being watched by a poisonous snake behind him.

    He turned back again, a black figure flashed by, as if a woman was staring at him? And with hatred?

    That's a familiar back, who is this woman?
